THE CHAMPION OF PUFFINESS FOR MORE YOUTHFUL LOOKING EYES

Two eye champions target the effect of eye stressor damage & the signs of aging.

Our eyes empower us to express who we are and claim our unique individuality. Yet, Lancôme has demonstrated that many stressors impact the fragile eye contour and skin barrier, accelerating the signs of aging. In fact, the skin around our eyes requires specific care. It is 3 times thinner than that of the rest of the face and less protected as its barrier function is weaker. And, as we blink around 10,000 times a day, engaging 22 different muscles, the eye contour area is subject to continuous stress.

In addition to this mechanical stress, the eye area is naturally less protected and vulnerable to many damaging factors: lack of sleep, harsh makeup removal, pollution, mask-wearing, stress, dry weather, and other external aggressors. All these elements can further weaken the skin barrier around the eyes.

Now enhanced by our powerful patented complex, the new Advanced Génifique Yeux Light-Pearl™ eye and lash serum contains 7 pre-and probiotic fractions specifically chosen for their action on the skin microbiome. As the champion of puffiness, it works to strengthen the eye contour barrier while smoothing and firming lines. In addition, it also contains caffeine extract known to be a stimulant and reduce puffiness and arginine known to fortify lashes.

Engineered with a 360° patented stainless-steal cryo-pearl, it accesses 100% of the eye contour – including the most hard-to-reach areas. Delivering a proven -3°C instant cooling effect, fatigue as it is moved in a circular motion to provide a cooling massage. Reducing puffiness, lines, wrinkles, bags and sagging, it delivers more youthful vibrant eyes in just 7 days.

ADVANCED GÉNIFIQUE YEUX EYE CREAM

A breakthrough formula for skin that’s fragilized by eye stressors, Advanced Génifique Yeux achieves instantly stronger skin barrier and more youthful-looking, brighter eyes in 7 days via a targeted action on dark circles, whose cause is far more complex and multifaceted than the obvious lack of sleep:

  • Purple / blueish-toned dark circles are caused by the skin’s vascular network. As the skin of the lower eyelid is especially thin and translucent, the underlying blood vessels become visible, bringing a violet tint to the area.
  • Brown circles occur as a result of hyperpigmentation, following

UV exposure, pregnancy, a genetic predisposition and lack of sun protection.

  • Shadowing effect caused by volume loss. As we age, the skin becomes thinner, and we lose fat and collagen, creating hollows in the inner corner of the eye. Lack of firmness and elasticity

means the lower eyelid is vulnerable to drooping. Together, these irregularities create a dark, shadowy effect.
